La Traviata at the Sydney Opera House

Violetta is a coveted courtesan, the toast of Paris, desired by many. When she meets the ardent Alfredo, her life changes forever.

But who is the woman behind the courtesan? Can any of us escape our past? This fresh production of an opera classic invites new questions.

See this if you like: Moulin Rouge, a good tearjerker film, gorgeous period costumes, music you can hum after the show.

Verdi’s La Traviata music sings of freedom with flying melodies, makes merry with rousing drinking songs and leaves us with passionate duets between breaking hearts.

La Traviata Synopsis:
Beautiful and carefree, the courtesan Violetta is the life of every party. But behind that dazzling smile, she knows that she is dying. Unaware of her troubles, the shy Alfredo is in love. Violetta is torn: is the promise of true love worth giving up her life of freedom? She takes a chance on a life with Alfredo living in the country, and it seems she could be happy. But Alfredo’s father has other ideas. He demands the impossible: Violetta leave Alfredo, for the sake of his family’s reputation. Devastated, Violetta agrees and writes Alfredo a letter of farewell, concealing her love. Alfredo is heartbroken and furious, and coming face to face with her at a ball, he delivers the ultimate insult. Will Alfredo learn of Violetta’s undying love before she succumbs to her illness?
